Three Year Olds Are No Joke

Listen, my three year old is my pride and joy (so is my three month old if we're being honest), but some days I don't know what I've gotten myself into with this stay at home business.  Three year olds are no joke.  They can be a sweet as pie.  But they can also test some limits like nobody's business.  This is the phase we are in.

I saw this meme on some social media outlet and I literally laughed out loud.  I don't know what show/movie the image is from but I completely played out this secret tribe in my head with this look.  And it is so true.  Luckily, most days our public outings don't involve screaming toddlers but, listen, I still get it.  Us Mamas have to stick together.
Here's the thing: I know this is how kids learn.  We are right where we are supposed to be and I'm not wishing any time away.  Just wishing for more "pie" moments and less "testing" moments, but I will take everything that is handed to me for I know these babies don't keep and before I know it they will be out with their friends and driving and off to college.  #somebodyholdme

We had Kate's three year well visit today at the doctor's office.  She is growing wonderfully and right in line with where her growth chart has projected her.  She weighs 31 pounds (54th percentile) and is 37" tall (50th percentile).

She is super smart and kind and polite and is still totally a Mama's girl.  (I am all about this!)  She loves playing and being imaginative and creative and melts my heart on the daily.  I am constantly amazed and impressed at who she is becoming and thank my lucky stars every day that she is mine.  Seriously, I am one lucky Mama.

We love you so, SO much, Kate.  Happy 3rd birthday!  Keeping being you!

Checking on her little sister.  #sosweet

My girls!

Playing with the train set!

Sleepy ladder climbing!  We know we only have a little bit longer
where going to the doctor in your pajamas is acceptable!

A lollipop at 8:30 am?!  Why not?!

She was super excited about that!

Maya is bright eyed and happy for Kate's well visit!

Frozen and Tinkerbell stickers for the win!

Sleepy, sleepy sis.  They both make me melt.
